Large pectoral haematoma post-transradial catheterisation: an unusual but avoidable complication

Large pectoral haematoma is an extremely rare complication of transradial catheterisation. Branch or main vessel injury due to luminal passage of guidewires and catheters may lead to bleeding and haematoma formation at adjacent sites along the vessel track. We present a 53-year-old post-transradial catheterisation patient, who complained of chest pain due to right axillary artery branch perforation causing haematoma, which was emergently managed by embolisation with autologous coagulated blood.
